I have had 2 team mates in the last month and a half... both were women, both were control freaks, and both had 2 years experience...
I have only been driving for a month and a half and I wanted some input on how to meet ppl ... how do you find a real life person when you are on the road so much... I want a partner that I actually like as a person...
I dont care about their gender but I prefer similar culture background. I dont know any truck drivers myself.
I work for schnieder and their picks are lacking... and I now understand why men dont want a female team mate... the last two were all drama and never not complaining. I would like to make friends and know ppl even if I dont team with them ... how to socialize ?? Any Ideas out there or experiences
Thanks
Team drivers? How do you going about meeting ppl to team with?

There's a couple of websites for truckers, but I don't know if they're good or not.
truckercupid.com
truckerpassions.com
There's probably plenty more social sites for truckers; maybe Google and find a few. -
It aint easy. I teamed with a guy from orientation. We were as different as night and day but we got along ok.

Find someone that is clean and a decent driver and work out any issues that pop up...bout the only way that has worked for me
Puppage Thanks this. -
and i dont care about finding a husband... love is not what I am in search off... finding someone I dont want to run screaming away from or knock out lol is what I want and friends wouldnt hurt either -
Nearly impossible to find a perfect teammate.Even best friends will have issues after living with them in such a small space.
Most people run solo for this reason,but you have to be able to handle the solitude.
Trial and error is probably your only option,just talk with drivers at your terminals.Maj. Jackhole Thanks this. -
ChancesRGood Thanks this.

I'll bet you get a lot more responses after you gain more experience , 1.5 months isn't much and drivers will probably pass for more seasoned drivers.
Stick with it you seem like a good fit for this industryOxbow, Maj. Jackhole and ChancesRGood Thank this. -

Spin the whisky bottle is how we do it up here.
Are you more interested in the idea of team driving and having another human you get along with to somewhat relieve the boredom? Do you get lonely while on the road? Or is it more of possibly looking for a partner in life which most people outside the industry either don't understand or won't put up with someone who is often on the road?
